   I'd love to answer your question, but that really seems like something you should ask UDM about, as anything we tell you on here won't be official, and therefore shouldn't really be counted on as fact. Just be polite and persistent until you get an a...

   I agree with a lot of what rockstar said, both the positive and the negative. The disorganization really got to me at certain points during the program, and I do feel like they are slow to make changes based on problems that the previous cohorts have...

   Thanks! That's a really good idea just to list unique skills :-)

4. Listing clinical skills on a new-grad resume?

   sophia26 posted a topic in New Nurse

   I'm graduating in May, and I'm putting together my resume. I'm in an accelerated second degree nursing program, so I didn't work as a nurse tech during school. My previous work experience includes CNA work as well as positions in retail management. ...

   Well it depends how much you're going to have to do in advance for the wedding. I know a couple people in my class were in weddings and I think it was pretty stressful for them. Especially right before finals, you're going to want to be able to just ...

   kalabaw, I'll do my best to answer your questions :-) 1. The number one thing I wish I did before starting the program was take pharmacology, or at least read up on it some. It was SO overwhelming trying to learn pharm for the first time with all the...

   SDO = second degree option, which is what UDM calls their accelerated program. I'm not actually sure how many people didn't pass the first semester. I know of at least two students who withdrew, at least partially because of outside circumstances in ...

   I just finished my first semester in the SDO program last week, and I'm surviving so far. I found this board really helpful when I was applying, and I kinda feel like I should do my part by helping out now that I'm in the program. So, if anyone has q...

   msuliz, I don't really remember what my acceptance letter looked like, but if you're unsure about whether that's an acceptance letter, you should contact the administrative assistant who is in charge of Nursing stuff. She should be able to answer yo...

    sophia26 replied to creativetype2007's topic in Michigan

    I just wanted to respond and say that the likely reason no one from this cohort has come on here to respond recently is because we are far too busy to have time for anything except studying! Honestly, I'm feeling pretty overwhelmed right now and I'm ...

    1) I honestly don't remember exactly how long my essay was, but I don't think it was more than a few pages long. Maybe around 700 words? Definitely not 32,000 characters though, as you're right, that would be really long!! 2) You don't need to wait ...

    Thanks for the offer, but I think I'll be ok :-) I'm just going to preview the book before class starts and I'm sure I'll be fine. And to be honest, if its anything at all questionable (which it kinda seems like it is since you can't go into detail....

    I'm sure the whole program will be tough, but I'm ready for the challenge :-) I've been taking prereqs and waiting to start nursing school for a while now, so I'm so excited to actually start and learn so much new information. I don't really understa...
